Abstract

AbstractThe first organocatalytic enantioselective CH alkenylation and arylation reactions of N‐carbamoyl tetrahydropyridines and tetrahydro‐β‐carbolines (THCs) are described. The metal‐free processes represent an efficient and straightforward approach to a variety of structurally and electronically diverse α‐substituted tetrahydropyridines and THCs in good yields with excellent regio‐ and enantioselectivities. Preliminary control experiments provide important insights into the reaction mechanism.
